HIGHLY CONFIGURABLE POWER-DELIVERY MANAGEMENT POLICY

Abstract:

Described are mechanisms and methods for implementing highly configurable power delivery management policies. An apparatus may comprise a first circuitry, a second circuitry, a third circuitry, and a fourth circuitry. The first circuitry may include a memory to store a first table having one or more first entries and to store a second table having one or more respectively corresponding second entries. The second circuitry may, upon the occurrence of an event, test a condition specified by an entry in the first table. The third circuitry may, upon the test of the condition having a positive result, evaluate a set of one or more parameters as specified by an entry in a second table corresponding with the entry in the first table. The fourth circuitry may initiate a power-management action based upon the evaluation of the set of one or more parameters.
